The Pit and the Pendulum [DVD] The Pit and the Pendulum [DVD] The success of The Fall of the House of Usher in 1960 spurred American International Pictures to quickly launch another production based on an Edgar Allan Poe...... more The success of The Fall of the House of Usher in 1960 spurred American International Pictures to quickly launch another production based on an Edgar Allan Poe story. While producer-director Roger Corman had hoped to next adapt "The Masque of the Red Death" (which wasn't produced until 1964), Pit and the Pendulum (the on-screen title) became the second in AIP's long-running Poe series. Set in post-Inquisition Spain, the film stars John Kerr as a young Englishman who travels to the seaside castle of his brother-in-law (Vincent Price) to uncover the circumstances behind the death of his sister (a dubbed Barbara Steele). Price is tormented by memories of his mother's premature burial by his inquisitor father (also Price) and fears that this sadistic legacy has contributed to Steele's demise. Furthermore, he believes that Steele was also buried alive--a belief compounded by the mysterious destruction of her room, and the sound of her harpsichord playing in the night... Structured almost identically to Usher, Richard Matheson's script fleshes out the brief original text with a fast-paced and twist-filled plot that never loses sight of the psychological themes of Poe's work. It also provides Price with the richest of his many AIP/Poe roles, a sympathetic, deeply emotional man who is unhinged by the sins of his father. Corman's direction is equally driven and fluid, and features some impressive quasi-psychedelic visuals in the tense climax. Also noteworthy is art director's Daniel Haller's impressive design of the title set piece. --Paul Gaita, amazon.com ... less	Postage & Packaging: Free!

Pit and Pendulum in Nottingham

Advantages: Cheap food, 7 deadly sins cocktails, nice interior
Disadvantages: None I think think of.

...The Pit and Pendulum on Victoria Street, Nottingham is part of the Eerie Pub Chain. It is a very dark gothic pub that lots of alternative people visit. There are two levels to this pub. Outside are two flaming torches. They only let over 18s inside and are very strict on checking ID. They had a wide selection of drinks that are well priced and they sell the 7 deadly sins cocktails for £4...

Review of The Pit and The Pendulum, Nottingham

'Betrayal cuts both ways!'

Advantages: Enjoyable romp, Vincent Price is great
Disadvantages: Not really scary or horrible

...A review of the MGM DVD, available for about £3 from amazon. It has perfectly acceptable picture quality and no extras whatsoever. The Pit and the Pendulum was Roger Corman?s second Edgar Allan Poe movie for American International Pictures. Corman, sometimes a very good director, was the king of exploitation, and knew a good formula when he hit on one. Poe is a classic author in the public...
